Early Scouting for Dent Schoolhouse Haunted House

We are looking of people of all ages to act in our upcoming season at The Dent Schoolhouse. Located in Ohio, The Dent Schoolhouse has been featured in many nationally printed haunt magazines, featured on websites, and even on The Travel Channel. Below I will post links to the haunt’s site and also to some of the media. They do have a Facebook if you want to look at all of the pictures from past seasons that include movie-quality scenery and makeup.

We were named the number 11 scariest haunted house in America by hauntworld.com in 2011. So needless to say, this is not your average corn maze.

It is a plus if you are at least young-looking or can play young characters. This is supposed to be a grade school and we would like to find some people that can fit the part since most of us are at least 23.

I cannot disclose details about the haunt or the upcoming season, but if you are interested, please go to their Facebook page and send a message.

Thank you and happy haunting!

His one-man musical, AND THEN I WROTE A SONG ABOUT IT, is slated to open in July at the Marjorie S Deane Little Theatre. Off Broadway. They had an unfortunate incident happen with a major investor and have been set back a bit. However, all the funds have been raised but what looks to be the final $15,000, so the producers have decided to start a kickstarter to raise the final amount through fundraising. Nick is trying to get the word out because literally, if the final amounts are raised on Kickstarter, dreams come true for alot of people.

Here is the link to the Kickstarter page. You can find a video preview and more information below. Donations can be as little as $1. Please share with anyone who might be interested.
